business hours at the Northwest 

Mountain Regional Office of the Federal 

Aviation Administration, Air Traffic 

Organization, Western Service Center, 

Operations Support Group, 2200 S 

216th Street, Des Moines, WA 98198. 

Incorporation by Reference 

Class E5 airspace designations are 

published in paragraph 6005, of FAA 

Order JO 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This 

document proposes to amend the 

current version of that order, FAA Order 

JO 7400.11J dated July 31, 2024, and 

effective September 15, 2024. These 

updates would be published in the next 

update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. That 

order is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this document. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11J lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service routes, and reporting points. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 14 CFR part 71 that would establish 

Class E airspace extending upward from 

700 feet above the surface at Challis 

Airport, Challis, ID, in support of the 

airport’s forthcoming transition from 

VFR to IFR operations. 

The proposed Class E airspace would 

exist within a 6-mile radius of the 

airport with extensions to 5.9 miles 

north and .6 miles east of the arc. This 

configuration is designed to contain 

departing aircraft until reaching 1,200 

feet above the surface to the north and 

east and arriving aircraft that descend 

below 1,500 feet above the surface to the 

south. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. It, 

therefore: (1) is not a ‘‘significant 

regulatory action’’ under Executive 

Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant 

rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies 

and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 

26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant 

preparation of a regulatory evaluation as 

the anticipated impact is so minimal. 

Since this is a routine matter that will 

only affect air traffic procedures and air 

navigation, it is certified that this 

proposed rule, when promulgated, will 

not have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures, prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.

Incorporation by Reference 

Jet routes are published in paragraph 

2004 and domestic VOR Federal airways 

are published in paragraph 6010(a) of 

FAA Order JO 7400.11, Airspace 

Designations and Reporting Points, 

which is incorporated by reference in 14 

CFR 71.1 on an annual basis. This 

document proposes to amend the 

current version of that order, FAA Order 

JO 7400.11J, dated July 31, 2024, and 

effective September 15, 2024. These 

updates would be published in the next 

update to FAA Order JO 7400.11. That 

order is publicly available as listed in 

the ADDRESSES section of this document. 

FAA Order JO 7400.11J lists Class A, 

B, C, D, and E airspace areas, air traffic 

service (ATS) routes, and reporting 

points. 

Background 

This action is proposed due to the 

Spartanburg, SC (SPA), VORTAC 

relocation project. The land where the 

Spartanburg VORTAC resides is being 

developed for other uses which requires 

its relocation. The Spartanburg 

VORTAC is planned to be relocated in 

October 2025 from its current location, 

‘‘lat. 35°02′01.05′′ N, long. 081°55′37.24′′ 

W’’, to 7.97 nautical miles (NM) southsouthwest, ‘‘lat. 34°54′19.19′′ N, long. 

081°58′11.30′′ W’’. The facility 

identification and magnetic variation 

will remain unchanged. The route 

modifications proposed would realign 

the airway structure resulting from 

relocating the Spartanburg VORTAC. 

The Proposal 

The FAA is proposing an amendment 

to 14 CFR part 71 to amend Jet Routes 

J–83 and J–85, and VOR Federal 

Airways V–415 and V–605 to support 

the Spartanburg, SC (SPA), VORTAC 

relocation project. The proposed 

changes are described below. 

J–83: J–83 currently extends between 

the Spartanburg, SC (SPA), VORTAC 

and the Dryer, OH (DJB), VOR/Distance 

Measuring Equipment (VOR/DME). The 

FAA proposes to remove the airway 

segment between the Spartanburg 

VORTAC and the Appleton, OH (APE), 

VORTAC as once the Spartanburg 

VORTAC is relocated, aircraft flying this 

segment of Jet Route J–83 would conflict 

with aircraft flying on the adjacent 

United States Area Navigation (RNAV) 

Route Q–149. As amended, the airway 

would extend between the Appleton 

VORTAC and the Dryer VOR/DME. 

J–85: J–85 currently extends between 

the Spartanburg, SC (SPA), VORTAC 

and the Dryer, OH (DJB), VOR/DME. 

The FAA proposes to remove the airway 

segment between the Spartanburg 

VORTAC and the Charleston, WV 

(HVQ), VOR/DME as once the 

Spartanburg VORTAC is relocated, 

aircraft flying this segment of Jet Route 

J–85 would conflict with aircraft flying 

on the adjacent RNAV Route Q–147. As 

amended, the airway would extend 

between the Charleston VOR/DME and 

the Dryer VOR/DME. 

V–415: V–415 currently extends 

between the Montgomery, AL (MGM), 

VORTAC and the intersection of the 

Montgomery VORTAC 029° and 

Gadsden, AL (GAD), VOR/DME 124° 

radials (HEFIN Fix); and between the 

intersection of the Rome, GA (RMG), 

VORTAC 060° and Foothills, SC (ODF), 

VOR/DME 258° radials (NELLO Fix) and 

the intersection of the Spartanburg, SC 

(SPA), VORTAC 101° and Charlotte, NC 

(CLT), VOR/DME 229° radials (LOCKS, 

SC, Fix). Due to the relocation of the 

Spartanburg VORTAC, the radials that 

make up the LOCKS Fix are changed to 

become the intersection of the 

Spartanburg VORTAC 088° True (T)/ 

090° Magnetic (M) and Charlotte VOR/ 

DME 227°T/232° M radials. The FAA 

proposes to update the route description 

of VOR Federal Airway V–415 with the 

new radials that define the LOCKS Fix. 

As amended, the airway would extend 

between the Montgomery VORTAC and 

the HEFIN Fix; and between the NELLO 

Fix and the intersection of the 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with PROPOSALS1
103722 Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 244 / Thursday, December 19, 2024 / Proposed Rules 

Spartanburg VORTAC 088° and 

Charlotte VOR/DME 227° radials. 

V–605: V–605 currently extends 

between the Holston Mountain, TN 

(HMV), VORTAC and the Spartanburg, 

SC (SPA), VORTAC. In the route 

description of VOR Federal Airway V– 

605 between the Holston Mountain 

VORTAC and the Spartanburg VORTAC 

is a turn point listed as the intersection 

of the Holston Mountain 171° and 

Spartanburg VORTAC 358° radials 

(GENOD, SC, Fix). Due to the relocation 

of the Spartanburg VORTAC, the radials 

that make up the GENOD Fix are 

changed to become the intersection of 

the Holston Mountain VORTAC 171°T/ 

175° M and the Spartanburg VORTAC 

001° T/003° M radials. The FAA 

proposes to update the route description 

of VOR Federal Airway V–605 with the 

new radials that define the GENOD Fix. 

Additionally, the FAA changes the 

order of the navigational aids (NAVAID) 

to be listed from south to north to follow 

the FAA’s current ATS route formatting 

requirements. As amended, the airway 

would extend between the Spartanburg 

VORTAC and the Holston Mountain 

VORTAC. 

The NAVAID radials listed in the ATS 

descriptions in the proposed regulatory 

text of this NPRM are stated in degrees 

True north. The full descriptions of the 

above routes are set forth below in the 

proposed amendments to part 71. 

Regulatory Notices and Analyses 

The FAA has determined that this 

proposed regulation only involves an 

established body of technical 

regulations for which frequent and 

routine amendments are necessary to 

keep them operationally current. It, 

therefore: (1) is not a ‘‘significant 

regulatory action’’ under Executive 

Order 12866; (2) is not a ‘‘significant 

rule’’ under DOT Regulatory Policies 

and Procedures (44 FR 11034; February 

26, 1979); and (3) does not warrant 

preparation of a regulatory evaluation as 

the anticipated impact is so minimal. 

Since this is a routine matter that will 

only affect air traffic procedures and air 

navigation, it is certified that this 

proposed rule, when promulgated, will 

not have a significant economic impact 

on a substantial number of small entities 

under the criteria of the Regulatory 

Flexibility Act. 

Environmental Review 

This proposal will be subject to an 

environmental analysis in accordance 

with FAA Order 1050.1F, 

‘‘Environmental Impacts: Policies and 

Procedures’’ prior to any FAA final 

regulatory action.
